Mary flys to London for the semester today. It is 34 degrees there. She has a direct flight out of Minneapolis. She has already checked in for her flight and paid for her extra baggage, all online.
Sarah got another job in the afternoons as a homework monitor; it pays better than a grocery store too. We enjoyed spending time with Sarah and her boyfriend Dan over the holidays.
Matthew is being a student in Storm Lake and for fun he is planning on building a gigantic room sized Risk game. He's got a rug he is going to dye and he has already bought the not so little soldiers. Very creative.
Daniel is in the Corn Belt Honor Band on Thurs. and then in the Wartburg Honor Band on Sat.-Sun., with his concert at 3:00 pm on Sunday in Waverly.
Philomena was in a dance competition last Sunday in Dubuque. Legacy Dancers is a middle school dance team. Their show case night is on her 13th birthday, Feb. 25th.
Stephen and Randy were polar bear camping last weekend for cub scouts. They had a lot of fun sledding and snow shoeing, but, yes, they did sleep in cabins.
It is nice now that Randy is through with school. He is home more and not busy studying. His job does keep him very busy, but we are getting used to him having the weekends off.
Perkins has slowed way, way down because it is winter. I was working 30 hours each week before Christmas, now I am working 12-15 hours each week. Which is more like what I can handle.
Take care and stay warm,
Caroline
